A garden shed was broken into in Kingsdown Parade and a bicycle stolen.

The was an assumed attempted robbery in Somerset Street, when a large black male followed a resident into her garage ,as she was parking the car, between 10.30 – 10.45 pm. She screamed loudly, and the male left the area.

Graham Syrett reports: Six thefts occurred from motor vehicles, three in Sydenham Road, and one each in Marlborough Hill, Montague Hill, and Somerset St.

A problem is occurring in Fremantle Square as numbers of adults, believed to have moved on from Kings Square, have begun congregating at various times of the day and evening on the grass area, drinking alcohol, littering and apparently generally taking over the area.

If you have any further evidence or information regarding this, please let Graham know:samuelthecat@msn.com
